AHSC Scooby Style

 Ready for another sketch from Atlantic Hearts Sketch Challenge?  






This sketch has so many fun elements to get your creative juices flowing.  I didn't have the scallop die like the sketch and that's ok.  Use what you hav
e.  I used a favourite older Spellbinders die and mounted on patterned paper. 

**Tip** -  Ink distress the edges of your paper to add depth and interest. 

I used a CC Designs stamp set for my large focal image and inked in Wicked Black ink, coloured with Copics.  The image is fussy cut & popped up with dimensional foam.  

**Tip** - Run your black marker along the cut edges of your image to make that image pop.  

I added a few enamel dots from my stash to finish off this fun card.

Let's get Sketchy

Atlantic Heart Sketch Challenge #659




I'm excited to be back as a Design Team Member for Atlantic Hearts Sketch Challenge beginning January 2026.   Each week a new sketch will be released for you to play along.  

 

I know it's only December, but I couldn't wait to get creating again.  Here's this week's sketch to get your mojo flowing .

I've used a large image from Kraftin' Kimmie Stamps (Lucy - retired), inked in wicked black ink & coloured up with Copic markers.  Image is fussy cut and popped up with dimensional foam. 



The background papers, book patterned banner and glasses are from Mintay Papers.  Sentiment is also from Kraftin' Kimmie Stamps - Happiness is Reading.  

Now it's your turn.  Remember to link up your project at Atlantic Hearts Sketch Challenge.

Happy Holidays - - Let's Look at 2024

 Happy Holidays!!!

I hope everyone is enjoying this festive time of year, full of love, laughter and making memories.

I love to take the time to have a look back at the previous year - remembering the fun projects - so let's get started


Gear Up - February release - I had fun with a shaped card & die to create this awesome robot themed card.


March brought Fairies & Furries a truly whimsical stamp set & so fun to colour up. 


What could be cuter than a caterpillar munching on yummy strawberries?  This one I used Prismacolour pencils and loved the outcome.


Hello Little One is a perfect set for baby cards, baby scrapbook pages and more.  I used up some "stash" embellishments to create this card.


It's Good Times & Tan Lines for this awesome summer layout.  Grab those fun stamps to add great visual interest to your scrapbook pages.



Air Mail - I mean seriously I had the perfect paper for this awesome stamp set.  It's just fun primary colours perfect for the little ones in your life.

Camping anyone?  S'more fun has you covered.  

Are you allowed to have favourites?  I'm thinking Lucas has stolen the show this year with Have an Ice Day.  I've combined with the birch tree stencil & kraftin' kimmie inks.  



Last up for the year was Flaming Holidays.  This adorable stamp set with dragons dressed up for the season is a must for your collection.

So there you have it - 2024 in a nutshell.  Now onto 2025 and a few changes with new & different projects & products.  

I wish everyone a happy, healthy Merry Christmas and all the best of the new year.
